An afternoon full of water-themed activities based on The Great Lakes Cycle: Build a diorama alongside Bell Museum guides, write to your legislators, adopt a drain, try your hand at cyanotype printmaking, and meet student groups working towards a more equitable and sustainable future. All ages welcome!
From 11:30 a.m. – noon, Rockman will be in conversation with Dr. Melissa Kenney, Associate Director of Knowledge Initiatives at the Institute on the Environment. Dr. Kenney is an environmental scientist with expertise in multidisciplinary, team-based science approaches to solving sustainability challenges. Her research program broadly addresses how to integrate both scientific knowledge and societal values into policy decision-making in times of uncertainty.
